Jude Bellingham’s Playful Interview After Stellar Real Madrid Debut
Jude Bellingham, the young English talent, offered a lighthearted post-match interview following his impressive debut for Real Madrid in La Liga.
His transition to the Spanish capital from Borussia Dortmund had captured significant attention, setting the stage for his highly anticipated Real Madrid debut.
Identified as Los Blancos’ top transfer priority for the 2023/24 season, the midfield sensation’s move was promptly finalized in June.
His exceptional performances during the pre-season tour of the USA only heightened the anticipation surrounding his debut in Madrid, and he certainly lived up to the expectations in Bilbao.
Despite the hosts’ inability to mount a response to Real Madrid’s dominance, Bellingham shone brightly in the Basque Country, delivering an outstanding first performance.
However, even with his standout display earning him the Man of the Match title, Bellingham playfully admitted that his goal on the night had a hint of luck to it.
In his words, “It’s an incredibly special night. Winning is the most important thing, and I’m forging great connections with my new teammates,” according to Marca‘s reports.
“We controlled the game, created opportunities, and although we had to fight harder in the second half, we managed to capitalize on counterattacks and secure more goals.”
Reflecting on his goal, he chuckled, “I had a chance to score. It wasn’t the cleanest hit, but it found its way in. I might have been a bit fortunate… but it got the job done!”
